In episode #2410, we discuss why batching content can actually hurt you sometimes. As you may already know, Eric and Neil batch content for this podcast, sometimes up to four or five weeks in advance. While this is a great time-saving strategy that can help you post more consistently and repurpose content across platforms, there are also a few downsides, including the ability to stay on top of trends as they happen. Join us as we outline some of the ways that content batching can hurt your brand and how you can adjust your process appropriately!
